Beyond the fast pace progress and development that the kingdom of Saudi is living today, remains an authentic natural and cultural treasure within reach of our curious exploration hands. The historical Southern Kingdom was filled with diverse gems among wadis, heritage villages, mountain hikes, and historical art forms, complimented by their spring Jacaranda's bloom, left us mesmerized and can't wait to come back for more...

We live only one moment that encompasses eternity and all the events within it, and it's down to us to choose how to experience it; for it could pass in a blink of an eye, or it can be a thousand lives amplified between who we are and who we aspire to become, venturing into these corners of the world and ourselves that we never dare to touch, open our hearts so wildly that we become the light that shines for others and lead the way to a better life

🌳🌳🌳 Read the caption 🌳🌳🌳
Let's address the elephant in the room:
Our mother nature is sick, slowly perishing, and it's unfortunately deteriorating due to our behavior, we have severed the connection our ancestors maintained religiously: that connection with the sacred forest, the elements, and the animals spirit; our greed, competitiveness due to our fear of scarcity, and need for expansion have surpassed the speed of the natural cycle of recovery, we can touch and sense it in each of our experiences, we can see the agricultural and shelters building activities replacing the old trees, and the industrial deforestation quickly demolishing our jungle where our oxygen and food reside. Our efforts at Ridge are focused on using eco & community based tourism as a catalyst to bring about awareness to the local communities who live side by side our natural resources and depend on them for their spiritual beliefs as well as their daily livelihood, and enable them to become self-sustainable and maintain their traditional harmonized way of living with their environment without the need to sell their land to big corporations and opportunistic businesses
We now need ideas from you to know what else can be done by a travel community to help in slowing down the pace of nature deterioration, so please do share your thoughts in the comments below 👇

The excitement is building up as we leave what we know as familiar to venture on a canoe into what started as unknown and soon became home, a world where we live side by side with nature; the rivers, the trees, and the birds are our neighbors, and material connection is not as valued as human interactions, a spacetime void of leisure needs yet full of love for one another, whereby whoever was a stranger in the way they look, dress, or speak are now family.
Thanks Sumatra - The Mentawai's World, until we meet again, and thanks to everyone who participated, you make the world a better place.

This year more than any other, we needed to start with a message of harmony, a place where our differences do not matter, for we just thrive through our similarities; we started 2024 with local communities in Cambodia learning about perseverance and social collaboration, we saw how a community can stand together for the aid of one species that bring love and care to everything and everyone around it. In turn, we carried notes from our corners of the world, a note about oneness, another about solidarity, and a last as a thank you for what they are doing, taking care of our nature and cultural heritage...

18/01/2024

Without delving into, deconstructing, and reconstructing our history, it gets harder to understand our present, however we still aspire to lead our lives by the heroes' values, knowing that unlike in the movies, the villains were never pure evil, since deep within each one of us we hold that duality described on the walls of these 12-15th century Angkor temples that we cycled the day around their forest, commemorating their royals, and telling their spiritual tales. So we keep going back learning about our lines in the sand and our hope for the future.

Psst, we want to share with you our best kept secret: sustainability should not just be a motto used in conferences and environment related meetings...
A couple of years ago Ridge Adventure stumbled upon a sustainability initiative spearheaded by that we are currently a proud partner in, whereby we put our mission of for into practice, since it's our belief that healing our connection with nature starts from enhancing the ecosystem within the local communities that surround this nature, be it farming communities, forest tribes, fishing villages, etc.
'sLife initiative located in Taro village - centers its nature remediation efforts around the life of this small creature that holds so much magic in between its wings, and uses the fireflies population decrease to spread awareness regarding the importance of soil health, local communities organic farming education, and the impact of our modern behavior on the nature all around us.
Ridge works with tFL to curate journeys and experiences for the public to understand how they can contribute to improving that community and nature eco-system.

There must be an obvious reason why we keep going back to these remote, wild, and authentic destinations; despite the effort to get there, the inconvenience due to lacking our preferred meals and hours of sleep, we still go back. Also there must be a reason why they keep opening their homes to us, they allow us to explore their culture and nature, they let us venture into their lives and most sacred places, the reasons are obvious but take open hearts and curious minds to comprehend them...
Thanks we shall come back soon

Our commitment towards sustaining nature and culture through working with remote local communities to maintain their preservation activities of the resources within their environment in the way their ancestors used to do, without altering any aspect to meet our foreign needs, moreover even take part in their local conservation and sustainability initiatives by supporting and developing their local eco-tourism programs, has allowed our community to bridge the gap of differences between the two worlds, as it enhanced our understanding of the world beyond our cities and towns into the villages and communities living nearby nature, and to that we are always indebted to every local host around the world who opened their houses, communities, and minds to receive us and explain their traditions and rituals to us in layman's terms...
and the mission continues

The Dayak's long houses are not just residences, they are sovereign village communities standing on wood logs, a family's heritage well kept and protected to tell a story, a town hall where ceremonies are held and ballroom for folklore evenings, they are where the great Dayak great grandparents and chiefs gave their first speeches, and it's where Ibu Hayati (the family's current head) told us and showed us all about the efforts to pass on the Dayak traditions and beliefs to the upcoming generations.
We go into these remote communities with a naive thought that by being there we are helping with their development and sustainability, only to realize that they are our conditioned paradigms that need development and refreshment by watching how these simple lives sprout and beam into philosophies and structures that stand the test of time through generations on generations, and we are there to witness what our modern societies have long lost and forgotten...

We go on adventures to surrender the last fort of resistance we hold onto, to let go of any residue that might cause our suffering due to our inability to experience our most expanded and highest self, so we go about it in an act of rebellion against the status quo of limitations, of egotism and of self-imprisonment...

When we say we don't only mean to go explore the wilderness, but also to understand the parameters of our mental conditioning and spiritual maturity, it's to wild ourselves beyond what we identify as our limitations, go beyond them and make new friends and families away from home, build connections with nature, and give ourselves the time to reflect and grow into who we long to become...
Our experience took us to some of the world's wildest forests, and into the houses of one of the world's most indigenous tribes, meeting with an ancient alternative medicine woman, and to that we are grateful...

We go about these adventures, hiking up mountains, exploring forests, sailing seas, and expanding our horizon, only to realize that our biggest blessing is the people that make up our community, for we are nothing but a bunch of humans indulging in nature, and in love of presence and companionship along the path.
Thanks to those who help us to be the best versions of ourselves, thanks to every Ridge Adrenaliniac

Home to one of the least explored rainforests in the world, that is rapidly thinning due to the logging and agriculture activities; the world’s third largest island will take us on a wild journey exploring the wilderness, flora, and fauna of its swamps and rivers, complemented by a cultural immersion into mystical indigenous tribes’ communities who still live according to their ancient rituals and beliefs. We disconnect from the modern advanced life, and return back to the days of hunting and gathering, trekking through the rainforests that is inhabited by the largest population of Bornean Orangutans in nature, camping in the forest, sleeping in local indigenous houses, and getting introduced to the Dayaks rituals and way of living.

The birds chirping indicates the morning without a need for an alarm, sunrise points us towards the east, before compasses and Google maps, the waterfalls showers, and the ducts irrigation system; before technology and civilization there was nature, the one we go wild into at every Ridge Adventure, the same nature that will outlive the entire humanity, and teaches us humility, hence we shouldn't be exerting much tension, we should instead just tune in, let go, and listen to the oldest song ever played, the sacred lullaby of nature...
Thanks

Rituals are the way locals reflect their commitment towards their faith and belief system, the more they are devoted to their rituals the more they feel that they have fulfilled their duties towards their creed. Balinese Dharma Hinduism is a highly ritualized religion, guarded by dedicated priests and priestesses, flourished through regular ceremonies, and rooted in daily practices that help the local Balinese to focus on what matters to carry throughout this life and it's the connections they build with the divine, ancestral spirits, and their communities around them; we are always lucky to witness and take part in local ceremonies and rituals that enrich our understanding regarding the core essence and drivers behind every community's behavior
Thank you Bali, we will be back soon

Hi world, my name is Ben, and I love Bananas . . The Elephant community in the north of Cambodia has preserved the forest to create a protectorate for their special kind of giant kind-hearted pet they have rescued, Elephants need nature to thrive and need large quantities of food every day, hence a creature centered development program is always a win win for the community, the creature, and the nature everyone is dependant on. We at Ridge love to witness and take part in such community-based Eco-tourism programs. . . #adventure #wildanimals #Wild #cambodia #care #creature #preservation #conservation #protection #nature #culture #community

During our local community immersions, we are very lucky to come across very unique individuals with very interesting stories; the eldest member of our host family, while squatting down comfortably in what we assume is his 8th or 9th decade, was telling us about his memories during some of the most intense times in the history of Cambodia, once during the American war in Vietnam that spilled over the border into Cambodia turning it to one of the most bombed victims during the war shared with Laos, succeeded by the Khmer Rouge who originally were sought to liberate the country then later went down in history as one of the totalitarian regimes that committed genocidal atrocities against their own people . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #history #cambodia #storytelling #local #stories #culture #developingcommunities
